Landing Page Variants & Reticle Expansion
Four landing page test variants built for A/B testing, plus 20+ new Reticle design system components. Each variant explores a distinct visual direction while sharing the same copy foundation. Source: dedalus-monorepo apps/website (test1-test4 variants, Reticle components)

Landing Page Copy
Core messaging anchored on: "Full Linux in 50 milliseconds."
Hero
Full Linux in 50 milliseconds The fastest persistent sandboxes for agents. Sleep for free, wake instantly, never lose state.
Feature Frames (5 rows)
- Speed - 50ms snapshot restore, 260x faster than pulling an image
- Full Linux - create → exec → sleep (the entire API), install anything, root access + GPU + Docker
- Self-healing - live VM migration (only Dedalus does this), zero downtime during host maintenance
- Persistence - $0 compute while sleeping, filesystem persists across sleep, pay only for active usage
- Pricing - starts at $20/mo, per-second billing, $0 when sleeping
Security Positioning
Nested isolation model: Hardware (100%) → Kernel (78%) → microVM (56%) → Agent (36%). Comparison table: microVM vs Docker vs V8 across kernel isolation, memory boundary, filesystem isolation, root access, untrusted code safety.
Pricing Calculator
Default config: 4 vCPU, 8GB memory, 50GB storage, 200 active hrs, 544 idle hrs. Dedalus rates vs ephemeral sandbox rates - key differentiator is $0.00/hr idle vs $0.04/hr.
Four Test Variants
| Variant | Codename | Visual Direction |
|---|---|---|
| test1 | Terminal | Terminal/CLI-forward aesthetic |
| test2 | Blueprint | Technical blueprint/schematic look |
| test3 | Cabinet | Cabinet/card-based layout |
| test4 | Bento Grid | Bento grid composition |
Each variant is ~40 component files exploring different visual treatments of the same underlying copy and feature set. PostHog A/B test flags control which variant is shown.
Reticle Design System Expansion
20+ new components added to the Reticle design system:
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
ReticleBackground |
Grid-line background pattern |
ReticleCard |
Card with structural-visibility styling |
ReticleGrid |
Responsive grid layout |
ReticleNavbar |
Navigation with Reticle aesthetic |
ReticleHero |
Hero section with grid lines |
ReticleFeatureFrame |
Feature section frame |
ReticleTerminal |
Terminal/code display |
ReticlePricing |
Pricing cards |
ReticleCTA |
Call-to-action sections |
The Reticle system applies the structural-visibility aesthetic (grid lines, margin rails, cross marks) documented in Reticle Design System to full-page compositions, not just individual components.
Branding Updates
- Purple wing logos (new primary)
- Yellow backup logos
- New favicons deployed across all apps (website, admin, docs)
